I'll make one suggestion, and I'm not preaching, just being my typical "overkill" self.....put some extra clamps on your cable ends where you have the loops..... Stagger the clamps so the bolts are down on one, up on one, down on one. I suggest three clamps per loop....... Trust me from experience.
Update, getting closer to being cleaned up. Got four good logs out the coffee tree, and two from the walnut.
Nice job gettin em down swags, thanks for the vids n pics. Is that the same uncle with you that got hurt a few years ago?
Nice work!. Nice wood. I didn't realize, however, just how slow those Kentucky Coffee trees actually fall.
Here's a picture of a split, should be really good looking lumber based on this. I'm looking for a good company to mill the lumber for me now. I like the idea of making flooring for the house. I've got three rooms I want to replace the hardwood on so need to see if these logs will give me enough for those rooms.
